    • Narratives of Sámi School History in Finland: The Histories of Assimilation Made Visible 

      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This article analyses narratives that have been produced about the Sámi school experience in Finland. The sources consist of studies in Sámi school history and history of education in Finland, as well as in pedagogical studies made since the 1980s, comparing the narratives found in each case. The narrative of assimilation dominates the field for good, historically verifiable reasons. This genre of ...
    • Nation-building and colonialism: The early Skolt Sami research of Väinö Tanner 

      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-01-01)
      In 1929, the geologist Väinö Tanner (1881–1948) published an extensive study in human geography on the economic and social adaptation of the Skolt Sami. Tanner aimed at an understanding and respectful approach, and today he enjoys the reputation of a culturally sensitive scholar: one who tried to see the Skolt Sami culture from within, and who wrote against the most aggressive discourses of his time. ...
    • Natural selection shaped the rise and fall of passenger pigeon genomic diversity 

      Murray, Gemma G.R.; Soares, André E.R.; Novak, Ben J.; Schaefer, Nathan K.; Cahill, James A.; Baker, Allan J.; Demboski, John R.; Doll, Andrew; Da Fonseca, Rute R.; Fulton, Tara L.; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius; Heintzman, Peter D.; Letts, Brandon; McIntosh, George; O'Connell, Brendan L.; Peck, Mark; Pipes, Marie-Lorraine; Rice, Edward S.; Santos, Kathryn M.; Sohrweide, A. Gregory; Vohr, Samuel H.; Corbett-Detig, Russell B.; Green, Richard E.; Shapiro, Beth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-17)
      The extinct passenger pigeon was once the most abundant bird in North America, and possibly the world. Although theory predicts that large populations will be more genetically diverse, passenger pigeon genetic diversity was surprisingly low. To investigate this disconnect, we analyzed 41 mitochondrial and 4 nuclear genomes from passenger pigeons and 2 genomes from band-tailed pigeons, which are ...

      Haugen, Marit S.; Brandth, Berit; Kramvig, Britt (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2010)
    • Negotiating with the public - a new role for ethnographic museums? 

      Bjørklund, Ivar; Brantenberg, Odd t; Eidheim, Harald (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Indigenous peoples, like the Sami of Fenno-Scandinavia, continue to be the object of museum display in ethnographic museums. Most of these exhibits focus predominantly on culture history via objects that reveal the quality and richness of indigenous cultures, with less emphasis on the political struggles that indigenous peoples are involved in. This paper is a reflection on the experiences in ...
    • New and little known species of Lepechinella (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Lepechinellidae) and an allied new genus Lepesubchela from the North Atlantic

      The objective of this chapter is to give an overview and analysis of the current trends and developments in biotechnology in aquaculture research and management. The technological developments along with structural changes in the aquaculture sector may affect access and intellectual property rights (IPR) regimes. These issues will be discussed in a wide perspective involving both short and long-term ...
    • New Developments in Russian Regulation of Navigation on the Northern Sea Route 

      Solski, Jan Jakub (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The regime of navigation on the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is still largely based on legislation adopted by the Soviet Union, and features certain deviations in the way Russia’s international legal rights and obligations are implemented. In recent years the Russian Federation has demonstrated interest in revising NSR legislation with the preparation of one single comprehensive Federal Act on the NSR, ...
    • New findings and an overall assessment of Norwegian biting midges (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) 

      Dominiak, Patrycja; Stur, Elisabeth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-24)
      Faunistic studies on biting midges conducted mostly in South Norway between 2006 and 2020, as well as a revision of available literature, resulted in a new comprehensive checklist of the species known from mainland Norway. In total, 21 genera and 216 species of Ceratopogonidae have been registered, of which as many as 165 are with Linnaean names. For the remaining 51 species interim names are given ...
    • A new genus of horse from Pleistocene North America 

      Heintzman, Peter D.; Zazula, Grant D.; MacPhee, Ross D. E.; Scott, Eric; Cahill, James A.; McHorse, Brianna K.; Kapp, Joshua D.; Stiller, Mathias; Wooller, Matthew J.; Orlando, Ludovic; Southon, John R.; Froese, Duane G.; Shapiro, Beth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-28)
      The extinct ‘New World stilt-legged’, or NWSL, equids constitute a perplexing group of Pleistocene horses endemic to North America. Their slender distal limb bones resemble those of Asiatic asses, such as the Persian onager. Previous palaeogenetic studies, however, have suggested a closer relationship to caballine horses than to Asiatic asses. Here, we report complete mitochondrial and partial nuclear ...
    • New information on the Ediacaran-Cambrian transition in the Vestertana Group, Finnmark, northern Norway, from trace fossils and organic-walled microfossils 

      Högström, Anette; Jensen, Sören; Palacios, Teodoro; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The Vestertana Group on the Digermul Peninsula, Finnmark, northern Norway, presents one of the few, potentially continuous Ediacaran– Cambrian sections in Scandinavia. Trace fossils provide the main age constraint, with the boundary traditionally placed at the base of the Breidvika Formation. Here, we provide trace-fossil evidence to show that this boundary is at least as low as the third cycle of ...
    • New integrated molecular approaches for investigating lake settlements in north-western Europe 

      Brown, Antony; Fonville, Thierry; van Hardenbroek, Maarten; Cavers, Graeme; Crone, Anne; McCormick, Finbar; Murray, Emily; MacKay, Helen; Whitehouse, Nicki J.; Henderson, Andrew C.G.; Barratt, Phil; Davies, Kim; Langdon, Peter; Alsos, Inger G.; pirrie, Duncan; Head, Katie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-28)
      Lake settlements, particularly crannogs, pose several contradictions—visible yet inaccessible, widespread yet geographically restricted, persistent yet vulnerable. To further our understanding, we developed the integrated use of palaeolimnological (scanning XRF, pollen, spores, diatoms, chironomids, Cladocera, microcharcoal, biogenic silica, SEM-EDS, stable-isotopes) and biomolecular (faecal ...

      Lake settlements, particularly crannogs, pose several contradictions—visible yet inaccessible, widespread yet geographically restricted, persistent yet vulnerable. To further our understanding, we developed the integrated use of palaeolimnological (scanning XRF, pollen, spores, diatoms, chironomids, Cladocera, microcharcoal, biogenic silica, SEM-EDS, stable-isotopes) and biomolecular (faecal stanols, ...
    • A new interpretation of the sedimentary cover in the western Siljan Ring area, central Sweden, based on seismic data. 

      Juhlin, Christoffer; Sturkell, Erik; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Lehnert, Oliver; Högström, Anette; Meinhold, Guido (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Two new reflection seismic profiles over the Paleozoic successions of the western part of the Siljan Ring impact structure show a contrasting seismic signature. The more southerly c. 10 km long Mora profile reveals a highly disturbed structure, with only a few kilometers of relatively horizontally layered structures observed. However, interpretations of refracted arrivals in the data, that can be ...
    • New occurrences of Palaeopascichnus from the Stáhpogieddi Formation, Arctic Norway, and their bearing on the age of the Varanger Ice Age. 

      Jensen, Sören; Högström, Anette; Høyberget, Magne; Meinhold, Guido; McIlroy, Duncan; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Taylor, Wendy L.; Agic, Heda; Palacios, Teodoro (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-18)
      We report on new occurrences of the late Ediacaran problematicum <i>Palaeopascichnus</i> (Protista?) from the Stáhpogieddi Formation, Arctic Norway. The stratigraphically lowest occurrences are in beds transitional between the Lillevannet and Indreelva members: the highest in the second cycle of the Manndrapselva Member, stratigraphically close to the lowest occurrences of Cambrian-type trace fossils. ...

      Tandberg, Anne Helene Solberg; Vader, Wim (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      A new stenothoid species is described from a hydroid polyp in British Columbia, Canada. The new species is provisionally assigned to Metopa as M. insolita sp. nov., pending revision of this genus.
    • Nordlendingen tar de geologiske ressursene i bruk: et arkeologisk perspektiv 

      Skandfer, Marianne; Jørgensen, Roger; Wickler, Stephen (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-10)
      Mennesker har til alle tider nyttiggjort seg stein og mineraler. Fra steinalderen dominerer funn fra boplasser, men mye er også løsfunn av kjent opprinnelser. Vi vet lite om hvor steinråstoffet i Nordland ble hentet fra i steinalderen. Funn fra jernalder og middelalder stammer hovedsakelig fra boplasser og graver. Fra disse periodene har vi også kjennskap til lokale produksjonsplasser og steinbrudd. ...
    • Nordlysobservatoriet 50 år 

      Holt, Olav; Solheim, Jan-Erik; Brekke, Asgeir (Book; Bok, 1980)
      Nordlysobservatoriet i Tromsø ble høytidelig innviet 6. august 1930. Et 25-års jubileum ble markert med en tilstelning 30. juli 1955. Ved 25-års jubileet i 1955 ble det utarbeidet et festskrift - men det var ikke penger til å få det trykt. Desto gledeligere er det at vi til 50-års jubileet får anledning til et spesialhefte av OTTAR for å beskrive Nordlysobservatoriets historie og virksomhet, et hefte ...
